Tattoo Removal Market Trends



  • Growing changes in lifestyles and trends is driving the market growth


Market CAGR for tattoo removal is being driven by the rising changes in lifestyles and trends. Tattoos are regarded to be a cultural phenomenon that spans generations. Tattoo removal has become more popular as fashion and lifestyle trends have changed. People get tattoos erased for various reasons, including job objectives, social conditions, and other individualized elements that drive the worldwide tattoo removal business. For example, people with such tattoos want them erased since they are today regarded as the most regretful body art, antiquated fads, such as dolphin tattoos, misspelled foreign languages, and tribal symbols from the 1990s. Furthermore, people who are married or becoming older are making concerted efforts to remove tattoos they had in their twenties. According to a Premier Laser Clinic tattoo removal professional in London, more customers have requested tattoo removal in the last two years. As a result, the above criteria demonstrate that changing trends and lifestyles stimulate market development.


Tattoo removal technology is expected to be in high demand due to the prevalence of 'tattoo remorse' among millennials. According to a B&T MAGAZINE article, more than 28.6% of females and roughly 29.7% of males desire to get rid of their tattoos, and more than 35.0% of the population aged 18-21 regrets getting inked. The Laser Devices Segment in the United States had the highest CAGR of 9.6% in 2021. Tattoo removal uses a variety of procedures, including laser treatment, pulsed light therapy, dermabrasion, plastic surgery, and chemical peels. The majority of these procedures are successful, non-invasive, and safe. As a result, the increased popularity of these treatments and the growing desire for non-invasive procedures are likely to drive the tattoo removal market over the forecast period. Most U.S. employers will not hire people with tattoos, particularly in regions such as below the wrist, above the collar, and on the face. According to a Pew Research Centre research, over 76% of study participants feel that visible tattoos impair a candidate's employment prospects during an interview. Around 42% believe visible tattoos are undesirable in the workplace. As a result, such societal difficulties surrounding tattoos are expected to boost demand for tattoo removal. Thus, driving the Tattoo Removal market revenue.


Tattoo Removal Market Segment Insights


Tattoo Removal Treatment Insights


The Tattoo Removal market segmentation, based on treatment, includes laser therapy, surgical method, topical creams, others. The laser therapy segment dominated the market, accounting for 35% of market revenue. A laser technique employs a light beam that selectively absorbs various ink colors. When this light reaches the skin, it produces a shockwave, breaking the ink into tiny particles. The body's immune system recognizes these particles as alien and eliminates them from the body. Several types of lasers are available, including Q-switched Nd YAG and Q-switched alexandrite lasers. These lasers emit a strong burst of radiation that breaks apart the pigments or inks in a tattoo into small fragments that may be easily wiped away.


Tattoo Removal End User Insights


Based on End users, the Tattoo Removal market segmentation includes Laser Centers and Dermatology Clinics. The laser center category generated the most income (70.4%). Increasing the number of tattoo removal clinics worldwide is the key factor driving market expansion. Furthermore, the introduction of novel techniques such as intense pulsed light (IPL) treatment and an increase in demand for tattoo removal among the general population are expected to fuel the expansion of the tattoo removal market for clinics. Furthermore, having a competent expert present assures minimum scarring, wound avoidance, and skin texture preservation before and after tattoo removal. As a result, the increased need for safe and efficient methods boosts segment growth.
